USO Canteen Freeper Style
War has come to our shores. It was committed on American soil. We have been able to live in Freedom only because of those who have fought in the past wars giving life, limb and all the sacrifices for us to live in Freedom and go about our day without fear.
On September 11, 2001, that comfort, that feeling of living in a land that would not be attacked ended.
William T. Sherman said it succinctly, "War is hell."
The day has come for this Nation and its people to understand that there is a risk in losing its freedom, and in reality there always has been. We have ONLY stayed free because of the sacrifices of our military, our warriors.
This is about saving the future of America. Aristotle said, "We make war that we may live in peace."

We are seeing the American Flag flying at homes now more than ever in my lifetime. We are seeing the American Flag flying on vehicles and people wearing Flag pins and small Flags on their clothes. America is united in the cause for Freedom and for our country to WIN against the evil that came upon our land to kill and hurt us. To change our way of life and to destroy America which is US, you and me. To take away our precious Freedom.
This is the Freeper version of the USO Canteen. Where soldiers could come and feel a small part of being at home. It is a place where you that have family in the military can post a thought to a loved one that might be able to read it far away from home. A place where we that support our military can help support them, post to them, fun graphics showing the price in America and our troops. Poems, quotes, cartoons, or articles of how America is behind our troops.
Those in our military are our Nation's warriors. Let us join hands, fly our Flag and let the world know how important our warriors are to us....And that our MILITARY, our Warriors, are America's TRUE HEROS!
"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous) CHIEF gave his all in many ways. He touched our lives and his friendship meant so much to all of us. He will live in our hearts forever, and his friendship will always be a bright and shining memory in our hearts and souls.

God bless our troops! Friday, the elementary school that my girls attend will be having their annual Veteran's Day assembly.
You would love it!
Even the little ones get up and perform a patriotic song or poem in front of everyone.
This year, we are holding a luncheon for the veterans in our families, and for those in the community able to attend.
They deserve our heartfelt thanks!
I just wanted our Vets to know they are loved and appreciated, and that our present servicemen and women are too.
You are heroes!
And someday, I hope you can attend such an event as ours with your children, grandchildren, or nieces and nephews.
It bears repeating:"God Bless Our Troops!"

Thank you, ROL, for posting the lyrics to the Official Hymn of the AF. Beautiful words, all of them.
Aloft in solitudes of space,
Uphold them with Thy saving grace.
O God, protect the men who fly
Thru lonely ways beneath the sky. Amen.

rickety...Uh huh, sure, I believe that! Remember, we've seen you, and rickety's hardly the word!
Thank you, FG, for all the nice things you and Bunny say and do. Our servicemen and women are blessed to have the two of you.

Hi, "Gal" , I am sorry - I realized I had put girl there instead of gal after I looked again at one of your posts, but decided not to change it on the photo as the text is all "part" of the photo and had already been uploaded to my server. I think I mispelled another name on the group on Tuesday, too. In the thread on Sunday there will be a little paragraph below each photo, and the names are spelled correctly there.
